Can’t say I at all get the anti-Google marketing campaign by Microsoft running under the “Scroogled” monicker. But I do like this mug.

Sadly, the mugs have already sold out. Apparently, many were bought by Google employees. http://www.forbes.com/sites/kashmirhill/2013/11/21/googlers-love-microsofts-scroogled-gear-mug-and-shirts-sell-out/
Odd and funny..
There’s a variant you might enjoy at http://www.keepcalm-o-matic.co.uk/p/keep-calm-while-we-steal-your-data-7/
That’s different, but if it is true that most of these mugs have been bought by Google employees it improves Google’s public image because it shows they have a sense of humour. Couldn’t see Microsoft responding in the same way if someone started a campaign like this against them.
